462 P.2d 684 | Or. Ct. App. | 1969
Lead Opinion
Petitioner appeals from an order sustaining a demurrer to his amended petition for post-conviction relief. The petition alleges nine causes of action. No reason is stated or apparent as to why the first eight of them were not raised in the unsuccessful direct appeal which defendant previously took to the Oregon Supreme Court. State v. Bias, 248 Or 24, 432 P2d 312 (1967).
ORS 138.550(2) provides in part:
“When the petitioner sought and obtained direct appellate review of his conviction and sentence, no ground for relief may be asserted * * * unless such ground was not asserted and could not reasonably have been asserted in the direct appellate review proceeding * *
Since the petition states no reasons why these eight points were not raised on direct appeal, the demurrer was properly sustained as to them. Cain v. Gladden, 247 Or 462, 430 P2d 1015 (1967).
The ninth cause of action in the petition for post-conviction relief purports to be based upon the doctrine concerning police lineups enunciated by the United States Supreme Court in United States v. Wade, 388 US 218, 87 S Ct 1926, 18 L Ed 2d 1149 (1967) and Gilbert v. California, 388 US 263, 87 S Ct 1951, 18 L Ed 2d 1178 (1967). The Wade opinion was handed down on June 12, 1967, while petitioner’s direct appeal (State v. Bias, supra) was pending. Even
Affirmed.

ON PETITION FOR REHEARING
Appellant has filed a petition for rehearing contending that we were in error in holding that his ninth cause of action did not state grounds for relief. In his brief on appeal, appellant argued that his ninth cause of action was “not res judicata because the decisions in Wade and Gilbert
The petition for rehearing is denied.
